Exec Chef Gives 'Mixx' the Fix at Inlet Tower in Alaska
Chef Matt Little Dog Reworks the Mixx Grill at Boutique Anchorage, AK Hotel
SEPTEMBER 3, 2009 - The Inlet Tower Hotel & Suites, a boutique hotel in downtown Anchorage, announces an exciting new dining option for Anchorage travelers and residents. New Executive Chef Matt Little Dog has revamped the menu at on-site restaurant Mixx Grill to feature fresh, locally-sourced favorites at a reasonable price point.
When Chef Little Dog took over the team at Mixx Grill in April of 2009, he had three things in mind: a brand new menu, lower prices and quality and service well beyond the common perception of "hotel food". Now September, those changes are paying off.
The new menu at Mixx Grill accentuates Chef Matt's eclectic, crowd-pleasing style and love of locally-sourced ingredients. Dinnertime favorites include Pepper & Sesame Seared Ahi Tuna and the Grilled Wild Alaskan Salmon Filet. For lunch, the Ginger Soy Grilled Salmon Burger is a knockout dish showing off the Chef's playful side.
Anchorage locals will recognize some of Chef Little Dog's signature flavors. Before moving to Mixx Grill, the Chef headed the kitchens at Anchorage mainstay Simon & Seafort's for nearly a decade. With such an experienced chef, management was delighted to hand the menu responsibilities over:
"I am very pleased that we were able to recruit a Chef of Matt's caliber." said Fred Luecker, General Manager at Inlet Tower.
Chef Little Dog continues to give Mixx the mix-up, introducing happy hour specials and discounts for locals. There are also plans to offer speedier and lighter lunch options, as well as three-course, pre-fixe dining options sometime in the future. Contact the hotel for the latest information on specials and discounts.
Mixx Grill is open daily for breakfast, lunch and dinner at Inlet Tower Hotel & Suites. Located just south of downtown, Mixx Grill is a convenient and beautiful location to share a meal morning, noon and night.
